You, a monster, still want to travel to the West?

Xia Zhiming spit out his snake tongue on Xiao Qingxin's shoulder and teased her, "Little girl, you're a million years too early to compete with me for my wife."

Hearing his words, the little fox blushed with shame, and said with tears in his eyes: "No...no, brother Zhiming, you are bullying me..."

Opposite the girl, seeing that she was almost crying because of Xia Zhiming's teasing, Xiao Qingxin stood on tiptoe helplessly and reached out to rub her head.

She actually thought her apprentice was very interesting, but unfortunately he was always played by Xia Zhiming on a daily basis, and she could only act as a close and good sister, which made her feel helpless.

The girls around were all smiling as they watched the little girl comforting the older girl. They were no longer surprised by this.

At this moment, the sound of a door opening was suddenly heard at the entrance of the cave, accompanied by a familiar shout, and everyone saw "Long Live the Fox King" striding in.

Seeing his father coming back so soon, the little fox stopped crying and walked towards him joyfully, "Daddy! You're back?"

"I thought it would take some time, but unexpectedly, once we started talking, the Bull Demon King and fellow Daoist Chi Jing hit it off instantly. I chatted with them for a while and then didn't disturb them."

"Long Live the Fox King," he said casually, leading the little fox back to the cave and sitting down. He then said, "Speaking of which, my daughter, you met that Taoist Chi Jing today. What did you think?"

At the table, Xiao Qingxin and the White Snake exchanged a glance, looking at the Wansui Fox King across from them with a strange expression.

The little fox didn't notice this and asked in confusion, "Daddy, why are you asking this?"

"My father is old and I am afraid he will not live long, so I am planning to hire someone to live with me."

"But..." The little fox tilted his head: "Daddy, you once ate the immortality elixir from Taishang Laojun, so how could you be dying soon?"

"Long Live the Fox King": "!!!"

Seeing this, Xiao Qingxin reached out and pulled the little fox in front of her to protect her, saying helplessly: "Because he is not your father."

Xia Zhiming poked his head out from the girl's shoulder and said happily, "I think I understand. Girl, you don't want to call me mother!!!"

"Zhiming, don't make trouble~"

Xiao Qingxin reached out and grabbed his vital point. Looking at the cold-faced "Long Live the Fox King" opposite him, she asked doubtfully, "Where has the real Fox King gone?"

Although her cultivation level was not high, it was basically impossible for her to deceive the Taoist Chi Jing with his tricks. The only thing that made her curious was the whereabouts of the Wansui Fox King. What if this person made trouble?

——Forgive her for never thinking about this issue.

Across from him, Taoist Chi Jing saw that he couldn't pretend any longer, so he gave up. He flashed back into his sage-like appearance, but didn't answer the girl's question. Instead, he said, "I was wondering why that old man was so hard to kill. It turns out he must have had a great opportunity!"

"You hurt Daddy!"

After saying this, Taoist Chi Jing's eyes flashed with brilliance. For a moment, he no longer cared about anything else and asked hurriedly, "Little kid, do you still have the elixir?"

The little fox's eyes were filled with tears.

Xiao Qingxin tilted her head?

Xia Zhiming, perched on the girl's shoulder, saw that the little fox was completely lost in his lust. He didn't bother waiting for his response. After closing his eyes and calculating for a moment, he instantly understood the entire situation. He extended his tail, patted the little fox's cheek, and said with a smile, "Your father is in the Banana Cave now. He's fine. Why are you crying?"

"How do you know, you beast?"

"You're such a talkative person."

"you!!!"

On the opposite side, Taoist Chi Jing stood up angrily upon hearing this, raised his hand and slammed it on the table. He was about to teach these youngsters a lesson, but suddenly found that his palm had missed!

Under Xia Zhiming's somewhat amused gaze, Taoist Chi Jing looked down at his body, which gradually became transparent and weightless. He opened his mouth in fear, wanting to say something, but in the end, he was a step too late. His entire body turned into a bubble and disappeared from this world...

"Brother Zhi... Brother Zhiming, where is that bad guy?"

"Nonsense! There are no bad people in the world!"

"That was clearly the one just now."

"Be good, you just had a nightmare. Let's go to sleep first and then go see your father tomorrow."

"Oh……"

The little fox nodded obediently, looking at the white snake that had crawled into the arms of the young master with some hesitation, but finally chose to give up thinking.

……

—————————————————————

The next day—

When the first rays of morning light shone, Qingxin took the little fox out of the cave and flew straight to Cuiyun Mountain on a cloud.

On the way, looking at the sleepy little fox beside him who had obviously stayed up late, Qingxin raised her hand to rub her head and said with a smile: "Zhiming won't lie to you, don't worry too much."

Xia Zhiming also leaned out of the girl's arms, rubbed her soft lips, and said comfortingly: "As I said, even if someone dies, in the end, they will just go to the underworld to find someone. Don't panic, it's not a big deal."

"Um……"

The little fox responded absentmindedly, looked at Cuiyun Mountain which was getting closer and closer, and finally let out a long sigh.

Seeing this, Qingxin didn't say anything more. He grabbed the white snake and hung it back on his shoulder. He urged the auspicious clouds under his feet to carry the man and the snake to the outside of the banana cave.

The girl raised her hand and knocked on the heavy stone door. After a while, a mechanism chimed softly, and a maid in blue poked her head out of the cave. Seeing the two people and the snake, the maid's eyes suddenly lit up and she said, "Wait a moment, Immortal. I'll go and inform you right away!"

After saying this, the maid in blue returned to the cave without closing the door.

At this time, Xia Zhiming looked at the blue-clothed maid walking away and said with a smile: "If I remember correctly, the Bull Demon King said that he would let his wife teach this maid the cultivation method. I didn't expect that after more than a hundred years, the cultivation method was passed on and her cultivation level has increased a lot, but in the end she is still guarding the gate."

Beside her, the little fox looked at the maid whose cultivation level was just as high as hers, and said somewhat dejectedly: "How amazing..."

"Practice requires diligence, but don't rush to win. Just follow the steps." Qing Xin comforted him casually: "Zhiming ten years to achieve the Golden Elixir, Wukong three years to achieve the Golden Elixir. If we compare them, how many people in the world will have their hearts broken."

"What about you, Sister Qingxin?"

"Don't talk about this..."

"Happy~"

While the two men and the snake were chatting, the Bull Demon King also walked out of the cave quickly, and after some greetings, he invited them into the cave.

After welcoming the guests to their seats and serving tea, the Bull Demon King glanced at the little fox and instantly recognized her true form. He turned around and asked with a smile, "White Snake, is this the old Fox King's daughter? What a pretty girl."

"Don't talk about this. How's the old fox?"

"Don't worry, you won't die."

……

Chapter 225 Filial Piety

After hearing what the Bull Demon King said, Xia Zhiming glanced at the little fox sitting beside the table, who was hesitant to speak. After thinking for a moment, he went into Qingxin's arms, took out the wine gourd and handed it to her, saying with a smile: "The wine in this treasure can heal injuries, take it."

Beside him, the Bull Demon King immediately understood what he said and called over the blue-clothed maid, saying, "Take her to the guest room to see the old Fox King first."

"Yes."

The maid in blue responded, bowed, and then took the nervous little fox to the guest room.

After the two women had gone far away, the Bull Demon King laughed and said, "White Snake, could it be that you can see the past and the future? Otherwise, how did you know that the old fox was with me, Old Ox?"

Xia Zhiming spat out his snake tongue and said happily, "If you want to blame someone, blame that Taoist Chi Jing for being too stupid. After being beaten up by you, he ran to Moyun Cave and insisted on hitting me in the face. I will know the answer after I read your fortune."

"Where is that rat now?"

"Of course it's gone."

The Bull Demon King was surprised when he heard this.

It's not surprising that Xia Zhiming was able to kill the red stone demon. After all, that guy didn't have any great abilities. He just relied on his magical powers to resist, run and hide. However, he was far inferior to the ancestor in front of him who had magical powers.

He was curious about—

"How dare you, a lazy snake, take action?"

"That's all I can do," Xia Zhiming nudged Qingxin's cheek and chuckled, "That man was rude, and I was afraid he'd corrupt our two girls, so I sent him to the West to see the Buddha as soon as possible."

"Hahaha, good good!"

The Bull Demon King slammed the table and laughed. After laughing, he asked the maids to change the wine and asked Xia Zhiming to transform into a human shape and drink with him.

He had originally regretted not being able to keep his enemy away yesterday, but he didn't expect to see his old friend visiting him when he woke up today, and he brought such good news, which was really a relief.

Seeing his enthusiastic invitation, Xia Zhiming naturally did not refuse. He turned into a human and sat next to Qingxin, enjoying the delicious food and drinking fine wine.

The two of them toasted each other and soon finished three rounds of drinks.

After a while, Xia Zhiming glanced into the cave and asked curiously, "Old Cow, where are your wife and children?"

Hearing his question, the Bull Demon King smacked his lips, as if recalling something unpleasant, and said, "Didn't you ask us to pick a fight with the monkey before? Now you're asking my child to set up his own camp. Yesterday he sent a letter, and in the evening he sent someone to bring his mother over. I, the old Bull, had to stay in an empty room all night."

Next to her, Xiao Qingxin blinked when she heard this. If she and Zhiming had a child, she probably wouldn't have such troubles. After all, she could just split up her body. She was just worried that someone wouldn't want to...

Xia Zhiming didn't think too much about it and said jokingly, "By now, the monkey is probably almost reaching the Lion King's territory. If you are bored, you can call your brothers to go and watch the show."

"That won't do. I can't even hide from the monkey. Otherwise, I'll find some excuse to fight him. We brothers are all thinking about competing with the monkey, but we can't let our impulsiveness ruin everyone's plans."

Xia Zhiming raised his glass: "Okay, then I'm out of ideas."

Lao Niu chuckled and raised his glass to drink with him.

The two brothers chatted for a long time and soon had enough food and drink. Until the little fox helped the long-lived fox king out of the cave, the father and daughter thanked the old cow for saving their lives together, and then said goodbye and left together.

After everyone had gone far away, Lao Niu touched his belly filled with wine and burped, then he went straight to Mount Futu - first to remind Lao Si not to recite the sutras too much.

……

-----------------------

At the same time, on the other side——

Qingxin protected the white snake that was sleeping soundly in her arms and led the fox king and his daughter back to Moyun Cave.

When everyone sat down in the cave, Qingxin looked at the pale-faced Wansui Fox King, thought for a moment, and said to the little fox, "Let's take your father to rest first and recuperate."

After all, as we get older, we can take medicine to replenish our qi and blood, but it is not so easy to replenish the energy we have overdrawn.

The Wansui Fox King naturally knew this truth, but he did not try to show off. After bowing, he allowed Huo Huo to support him and go back to the bedroom to rest.

When the little fox came out again, he saw Qingxin preparing to go out. After a moment of hesitation, he quickly caught up with her and asked, "Sister Qingxin, where are you going?"

"Take Zhiming out to bask in the sun."

"But... isn't Brother Zhiming asleep..."

Qing Xin blinked her eyes, thought for a moment, then leaned over and pinched the little fox's cheek, chuckling softly, "If he really wanted to sleep, you wouldn't see me the way I am now..."

Little Fox:???

She only knew that her master came in three forms: big, medium, and small. She had never considered the differences between the various forms. If there was a difference, the older the master, the less likely it was to see the white snake in her...

Thinking of this, the little fox glanced at Qingxin in front of him, but saw that she had already stood up and walked out of the cave, so he hurriedly chased after her.

"Sister Qingxin?"

"Don't ask any more questions. If you ask again, you'll be punished by making Zhiming fish."

"Oh……"

————————————————————————

Time flies, and half a month has passed without me noticing, and the Dragon Boat Festival is approaching.

The death of Taoist Chi Jing did not have any impact on the lives of the two women and one snake. The only thing that made Xia Zhiming feel a little regretful was that a monster that even Lao Niu found troublesome was gone, and it was also a rare wild material for the Eighty-one Difficulties. It was really a pity.

As for the Wansui Fox King, after half a month of rest, the old fox gradually recovered. He even found time to practice martial arts that he had long abandoned. Every morning and evening, he danced with a red tassel spear with great grace.

As for what exactly stimulated him, Xia Zhiming once asked the reason, but he only remembered the old fox's words at the time:

"That Taoist Chi Jing is a young man with no moral principles. I was careless and didn't dodge. Otherwise, how could I have suffered such a fate? When the Monkey King comes, I will definitely let him see my skills!"

He spoke with high spirits, and the old fox king's spear skills really improved by leaps and bounds, becoming more and more proficient. The spear shot out like a dragon and lightning, and the stick danced like a python's roots. It was obvious that he really had supernatural skills.

However, whether it was Xia Zhiming or Qing Xin, they both looked like they had something to complain about but were afraid to say it.

As the saying goes, fists fear young men, and sticks fear old men. If the monkey didn't have a body of steel and a head of stone, the old fox king might really be able to use the martial arts he had practiced for a lifetime to bully the young man. Unfortunately, the monkey was invulnerable to swords and guns, and he really didn't fall for it.

On the other hand, the little fox was often very excited when watching, with her beautiful eyes shining brightly. She would clap and cheer for her father every day, which gave the old fox king a great sense of accomplishment.

That afternoon, after the old fox king put away his red tassel and the little fox handed him tea as usual, Xiao Qingxin couldn't help but pull her aside. She tiptoed close to the girl's ear and whispered, "Do you know what Wukong is capable of?"

"I heard the fairy sisters talking about it. Daddy will definitely get a good beating..."

Xiao Qingxin was shocked and asked, "Why don't you persuade him?"

The little fox said quietly, "He won't admit his age unless Daddy gets a beating. He even dares to say that young people don't have martial ethics..."

Xia Zhiming poked his head out: "Xiao~"
